Research Progress of Endophytic Bacterial Resources and Their Secondary Metabolites / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ABSTRACT

Endophytic bacteria exist in the host and do not cause obvious damage to the host，which is an important part of the host ecosystem. Endophytic bacteria are a kind of important microbial resources with diverse species and wide distribution. In the process of long-term coevolution between endophytic bacteria and host，many symbiotic relationships，such as antagonism and reciprocity，have been gradually formed，which can directly or indirectly regulate the growth and development of host，assist host to resist diseases and insect pests，environmental stress and other biological processes. Endophytic bacteria can produce a variety of secondary metabolites in the process of symbiosis with the host，which plays an important role in the development of new natural products. In recent years，endophytic bacteria and their secondary metabolites have been widely used in the research and development of new drugs，biological control and other fields. In this paper，the diversity，species identification and secondary metabolites of endophytic bacterial resources are reviewed，and the future development direction is discussed，hoping to provide reference for the further development and utilization of endophytic bacterial resources.
